This event is reposted from the City of Oakland's Event Brite Listing you can see here

Please join the Mayor's Office, Citi Community Development, and the 100RC for the launch of the nation’s Civic Service Design Lab (CDL) dedicated to training government staff and making public services for low-income Oaklanders as effective and accessible as possible.

Our mission is to empower the City of Oakland staff to better meet the needs of Oaklanders through a new model of civic innovation. CDL is the implementation engine of the Resilient Oakland playbook, a community-led resiliency action plan that was built over a 3-year period. CDL's core function is to serve as an in-house service design incubator that enhances civic engagement by training, facilitating, and working alongside those who use and deliver City's critical social services.

By putting people first in every project that we touch, we are committed to ensuring that our public servants, civic leaders, partners, and community alike have the right tools to respond to 21st century challenges.

Join us to learn about CDL's journey and hear from our community members to see our process is being used in practice.

We encourage all residents to attend and invite members of their organizations, neighborhood groups, or city departments. Please forward this invite to your respective partners to share in the event together.*

*Registration required. Event will close at capacity. Please RSVP early!

If you can't make it in person, you can still join us online by registering at this link.
